Dell EqualLogic PS6510X

The Dell™ EqualLogic™ PS65010X is a virtualized iSCSI SAN that combines intelligence and automation with fault tolerance to provide simplified administration, rapid deployment, enterprise performance and reliability, and seamless scalability.

With 10,000 RPM SAS disk drives, the PS6510X array provides up to 43.2TB of storage for a great balance of cost-effective performance and capacity. A PS Series SAN built with PS6510X arrays can scale up to 691.2TB under a single, intuitive management interface.

The PS6510 line features a redesigned 10GbE dual-port controller delivering up to 10x the bandwidth per port and 2.5x the bandwidth per array compared to previous generations.

Exceptional Ease of Use

The PS6510X is an intelligent storage array that is designed to provide rapid deployment, simple management and seamless expansion.

All PS Series storage arrays include SAN configuration features and capabilities that sense network connections, automatically build RAID sets, and conduct system health checks to help ensure that the array is fully functional out of the box.

MODULAR DESIGN WITH ENTERPRISE RELIABILITY

EqualLogic PS Series arrays are based on a virtualized modular storage architecture that enables IT managers to purchase only the storage they need, when they need it — helping to prevent both underutilization and over-provisioning.

Using innovative data movement technology, all EqualLogic PS Series arrays in a SAN work together to automatically manage data, load balance across all resources, and expand to meet growing storage needs.

The EqualLogic SAN line is designed to meet and exceed the rugged requirements of today’s data center. The PS6510X includes fault tolerance capabilities through fully redundant and hot-swappable components — dual-controllers, three fan trays and power supplies, and disk drives with hot spares.

ENTERPRISE DATA SERVICES WITHOUT ADDITIONAL COST

With built-in storage features, the PS6510X enables best practice storage for top tiered data centers, organizations producing high- intensity workloads or higher end business applications.

The EqualLogic PS Series arrays include the following enterprise data services and software features with no additional software licensing fees:
